Well, January came and went. And with great speed. This month consisted on hard work finishing my submission for the C-SPAN competition. My video turned out to be a seven minute documentary featuring students and teachers called "On Education, Listening to the Voices Within Our Schools". Quite a mouthful. I also assisted fellow Ladue View producer, Nina Bocchini, with her video on dance walking. This consisted of us parading around the school in workout clothes, dancing with random students. Pretty fun stuff. Her video turned out great, and I will provide the link to it, even though all credit goes to Nina.

To round off the month, I made another commentary piece with senior Emma Grady-Pawl on entering second semester senior year. Her ideas are all very true and articulate, and I will post that link as well. Overall, a successful month. 

Emma's Commentary

 
Second semester. And we're ready to get rolling. We've got many new faces in the Broadcast II Class, which is fantastic. As for me, I'm finishing up my education video for the C-SPAN conference, and it's really coming together. I'm excited, but of course, not expecting much in the competition end of it. I also am going to start some more Op-Ed pieces (as we call them) with students from around the school who have something to say. 
It should be a good semester.
